West located on the corner of Granville and 13th street on the South Granville shopping corridor serves outstanding contemporary regional cuisine with a modern twist featuring pristine local ingredients and ocean wise friendly seafood. The elegant dining room has an incredible high ceiling highlighted by a magnificent temperature controlled wall of wine collection. Furnished with deep cherrywood fixtures and a cocktail bar, the decor and atmosphere offers a modern yet classic elegance.

I ordered the 2011 Dine Out Menu ( $38 three-course meal)

  • Appetizer: Squid Tempura Quinoa, Herloom Radishes Salsa Verde - The tempura batter was done poorly and soggy.
  • Main: Lois Lake Steelhead Trout with Braeburn apple and bulgur salad, arugula, horseradish sabayon - The steelhead was nicely done - moist and tender accompanied by the horseradish sabayon was to die for.
  • Dessert: Coconut Tart featuring grapefruit curd, coconut, white chocolate ice cream and caramel - The medley of the coconut tart, grapefruit curd and ice cream was harmonious and mouthwatering.
